About This File

This mod provides you with a batch of colorful, reduced-size, more immersive counters, dedicated to each of the belligerent nationalities in Wings Over Russia, the free mod for WoE developed by The Dev A-Team. Besides having a more attractive map and less confused stacks, you can also find more easily the units you're after. As a rule, the counters with rectangular national flags and division (Axis) or corps (Soviet) devices show the ground units, while the counters with roundels concern the air units.

The represented nations are either present in the only campaign existing at the moment, or available for possible new campaigns and theaters on this tremendous Eastern Front (Finns, for instance). Three “nations” have also been added to the list (replacing others, actually): the Soviet Guards, the Soviet Navy, and the Free Czechs (who flew within the Red Air Force, like the French and Poles). You can see on the illustration the graphical interest of having the growing numbers of Guards units distinguished from the other stacked Soviet ones.

The modified Nations list also associates adequate lists of ranks with several of the air forces who fought over Russia, and adds some other slight modifications to reflect some realities of the Eastern Front.
